Bite the Bullet..
My Media player won't play.
I put in the DVD,..in this case,Ghost rider,..and all it does is give me some lame screen that doesn't respond to anything I do.
CRAP!!..
You know what this means?..I'll tell ya what it means.
I have to format my friggin' hard drive!..That's what it means.
Seems like I have to do this at least once a year.
And it's not like I can just,..you know,..run the installation disk and be done with it..Oh no...
I have to reinstall all my pirated software,and that takes like 3 friggin' days because it has to be done in a certain order and then you have to reboot each time and download all the updates and remember which ones you can register and which ones you can't or they'll send the software police to your house and make a huge kerfuffle and the neighbors will all come out of their houses and whisper to each other,"I KNEW there was something going on at that house!",..and..
"Oh yes,..why,have you seen him riding his bike all over town in his holey jeans and DirecTV hat...very strange indeed!..
It just sucks...
Still,it's an opportunity to clean up several Gigglebites of garbage I've accumulated over the last year,and give my beloved laptop a crisp new look!..or a pathetic variation on the old look,which I had grown quite fond of,..thank you very much.
Oh!..and I got a raise!..so that's cool.

A big congrats for the well deserved raise, my friend. How is the companion site going?
Sorry about the reformat but as they say there is a reason for everything.
Have a great weekend!!!!
I keep tellin ya buddy...view and dump. Porn is not for saving.
Oh and congrats on the raise!
*these two events are not necessarily mutually exclusive.
danielle-Thanx for the congrats kid!
The companion site is going well.We're getting all the hardwood enthusiasts on the interwebs, :)
It's not porn!!
It's contemporary erotic art and..Crap,.I'm so screwed.
Congratulations on the raise. And I'm just glad I'm not in your house right now. Whenever The Spouse has to mess with his computer like that I have to leave town because he gets so, uh, you know, intense.
congrats on the raise, is a new bike on the horizon?
for the computer problem, find a teenager and ply him/her with alcohol in exchange for the software maintenance.
lorraine-..UPDATE!..I tried removing an "Active X" program,and now my stuff works fine!..Have fun in Chicago kid. :)
Rube-I'm pretty happy with The Spirit of Oxnard,but I do see a new toy coming up in the near future.
I hope it was a big fat raise..as I know you deserve it..
I need to find out how to down load all the thing I have and want to save and then how to erase every thing so I can kill my zombie..
so..your peddling your ass all over town huh?
OK, I've been wondering since jump street, and now I'm just going to ask, dammit. Is your name [name deleted to protect the notsoinnocent]? Scratch that, secret internet identities and all that -- just answer me this: Did your wife once advise you to keep your bike in 2nd gear when you've got a woman on the back? Have you ever lived in Turkey? Did you once say, in a bar overseas, "Oh, the boots I could buy for that woman?" I'm just asking.
Yellowdog G.-It was a fine raise!..The K's don't mess around.
I always transfer all my stuff to data CD's for just such an emergency,but like I told lorraine,I was able to fix it this time without the the Format.
..and yes..I'm peddling my ass as fast as I can! ;)
Cowbell-LOL..Sounds like you think you may know me from someplace.
Well I've been someplace,including a bar overseas,but never Turkey.
Feel free to drop me an E-mail,and I'll get back to ya! :)
The horrorscope for Capricorn this week said you'd have to reformat your hard drive and reinstall all your pirated software once again.
I am NOT making this up! I read this. OK ... I really am making this up.
dan-OMG!!!...that is so spot on! This changes everything!..wait,.You made it up?..bastard. :P
Whhhhhh! I hate having to do that to my computer...takes up so much time.
What is worse is when I cam back from Royal North Shore Hospital when Don was there and found that the woman minding our house (she was paid...we are out of town) let her teenage daughter play with my computer.... all the crap under the sun was on my computer pluss umpteen dozen photos of this basically plain 14yr old...done up like a dogs dinner to look "available" ...nothing wrong with being plain... plain is foine...
so now I am going to visit our 2 daughters a week each and have two 209yr olds (husband and wife) coming into the home to mind it...they want to do it as they are living with parents.... but I am very afraid for my copmputer and the lack of privacy...no matter what I say...they will get on it and I can't stop them at this point... maybe they weill improve it...hm
middle child- LOL @ the 209 year olds living with parents. :)
Can't you just password protect your computer?I would never think of using someone's computer without permission.Too much private info and such.
First, congratulations on the raise.
The rest sucks. I recenty had to take my laptop in for a virus problem. The computer person fixed me with a steely look and said, "this sort of virus is usually picked up on sites like blogs. You shouldn't go to blogs." Yeah, well.
